Save the Cat!: The Last Book on Screenwriting You'll Ever Need by Blake Snyder
3.0
This was an okay read. I won't say it was a total waste of time. Some of the information on structure proved to be useful. I don't know if I'll follow it to a T because it seems very regimented but the general idea could be helpful.
I felt his tone was pompous and arrogant. His views seemed very "my way or the highway." I liked some of the movies he criticized. And some of the rules I don't agree with. Some almost feel like they're insulting the intelligence of the audience.
But there was some useful information. I did find some of the stories about spec script sales interesting and entertaining. Plus, using a cork board to help with plotting books seems to be helping. An okay read.
